Alien Knights

Chapter 398: The Holy King of Muxi

In the dark king's audience room, Todd sat by the window, his eyes reflected the bonfire celebration outside the window, and the laughter and joy in the sky echoed in his ears. There was no expression on his flickering face.

The whole day has passed since the Protestant ceremony, Muxi City was immersed in joy, but no one in the whole kingdom knew that Todd, the king and pope, sat alone in the audience room for a day without moving.

As the door of the audience room was pushed open, Huggins hurried in, and saw Todd sitting in front of the window, and he let out a long sigh.

"Your Majesty! You were here!"

Hearing Huggins's voice, Todd turned his head and just wanted to speak, only to find that there was only a hoarse noise in the dry throat.

Huggins hurriedly lit the candle lights, found another glass of water, watched Todd drink it, and then said: "After the ceremony, you only showed your face at the palace celebration and left the venue..."

"Did the kingdom have any problems during my absence?"

Huggins was taken aback, and then slowly said: "That's not true. After the Protestant ceremony, the election of the first pastor's assembly, led by Father Moore and Friar Joe, is proceeding in an orderly manner; the banquet held in the palace, After you left, Master Emerson was in charge of the work, and the guests of honor had a great time; and, for the ten-day celebration in the city, the Raglans took on the role of excellent organizers..."

Todd smiled and nodded: "Everyone did a great job during my absence."

Huggins said excitedly: "Your Majesty, do you know? After the ceremony, a title of yours began to spread among the audience."

"title?"

"The Holy King of Muxi!"

Hearing this strange name, Todd was a little startled.

Seeing the other's puzzled expression, Huggins began to explain: "The title of the Holy King appeared once 900 years ago. The King of the Holy City of the East, Habakak, as the second pope of the Orthodox Church, defeated The southern imperial army, which had ten times the strength of its own country, signed the Nermatt Mountain Agreement and initiated the Purification Order of the Orthodox Church, which completely stabilized the turmoil in the Holy City at that time. Therefore, as the leader of the church, Haba Kak is honored as the holy king by the world."

Todd nodded: "So there is such a history."

Huggins said excitedly: "Your Majesty, you may not understand the meaning of this. In the next 900 years, no one has won the title of Saint King. Now people have given you this honor. This means you The deeds have been comparable to..."

Todd waved his hand and said with a wry smile: "What holy king, it's too much praise."

Finding that Huggins still wanted to argue, Todd stood up and said to the former: "Stop talking about this, accompany me out for a walk."

"I'll call the guards."

"No, no, just you and me."

"Your Majesty, it's not safe."

Todd ignored Huggins and walked out directly.

The outdoor Muxicheng has become a sea of ​​joy. The grand banquet filled the entire square. The crowds singing and dancing, no longer caring about each other's identities, countries and beliefs, gathered together to celebrate this special day.

Todd put down his hood, took Huggins, and walked towards the sister hotel.

As soon as they walked into the hotel, the aroma of wine and heat rushed over their faces.

The burning fireplace drove away the chill of the entire hotel; the coveted banquets made the entire lobby look lively.

The VIPs who had been at odds with each other talked loudly at a wine table; the knights wearing different coats of arms, like brothers, talked and laughed vigorously.

Karin, who was busy entertaining customers, was slightly taken aback when she saw Huggins walking through the door; when she caught sight of the black-robed man behind him, her whole body began to tremble.

Huggins leaned closer to Karin, and pointed to the back quietly.

The latter gave him a clear look, and while instructing Pamela to take his place, he led the way in front and led the two to the top floor of the attic.

Pushing open the door panel of the attic, a simple but generous room appeared in front of everyone.

Todd only glanced at it and saw that the decoration and layout of this room completely imitated the style of the small building in the Froststone Camp, which should have been made by Rachel.

Sitting at the table, Todd quietly lifted his hood and looked at the furniture in the room, with nostalgia and sadness in his eyes.

"Your Majesty," Huggins whispered, "Let the chefs at the hotel prepare some meals."

Looking up at Karin who was bewildered, Todd said with a smile: "Prepare meals for six people. It doesn't have to be too much trouble, as long as you can eat enough."

Watching Karin leave quickly, Huggins was a little puzzled.

six people?

Todd looked at the scenery outside the window, stretched, and suddenly said, "Call out Jerry and Edgar too."

Huggins was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, Your Majesty."

After half an hour, five people were sitting at the table.

In addition to Todd and Hudgens, there are also little Jerry with a silly smile, Edgar who is fidgeting, and Karin who bows his head silently.

Todd first glanced at the other four people at the table, then at the empty seats beside him, and finally said, "I still remember the time in the monastery... At that time, the six of us were members of the alien assembly. Supporting each other, helping each other, overcoming difficulties one after another, and this is where we are today."

At this time, Huggins suddenly realized that the sixth person was talking about Master Miles, Todd's schoolwork master in the monastery.

"At that time, I never dared to think about what will happen in the future?" Todd sighed as he looked at the steaming food on the table, "At that time, my greatest wish was to be able to eat like this. A decent meal."

Edgar with a broken mouth couldn't help saying: "But you are the king now, the pope!"

Todd looked at this young man who had begun to grow his beard~lightnovelpub.net~, remembering the funny words and deeds of the other person in the past, and said with a smile: "At that time, you thought that one day you would become a knight. The regiment’s scout leader? Can you still have a wealth of thousands of gold coins?"

Edgar scratched the back of his head and smiled embarrassedly.

Todd looked at Jerry again: "The thin, tall and weak child who used to only follow me, has now grown into a brave and good knights deputy commander."

The latter did not speak, but bowed his head respectfully to Todd.

"And you, my friend." Todd turned his gaze to Huggins again: "Your greatest wealth is to have a happy family."

Huggins sighed with emotion: "Your Majesty, without you, all this will be in vain."

Todd looked at Karin at last, and looked at the girl who had been with him in the past. For a while, he just yelled the other person's name softly: "Kalin..."

Karin, who had been burying her face in her chest, suddenly choked up for no reason, her emotions turned into tears, and fell on the table along the girl's cheeks.

Todd was a little flustered. He smiled bitterly and said, "I haven't said anything yet, why are you crying..."

"Sorry, Your Majesty." Karin sobbed, took out a letter from her arms, put it on the table, and said intermittently: "Sister Rachel said... if... you come to the store, you will... …I leave this to you…"

Todd picked up the envelope and opened it. There was a pair of drop-shaped earrings inside, nothing else.

Sitting on the chair and looking at the earrings in his hands, Toddrian was speechless for a long time.

Karin wiped her tears and whispered, "Sister Rachel, before leaving, let me pass on one more sentence."

Todd raised his head blankly and looked at Karin: "What's the matter?"

"do not forget me."
